James,
It's chemmy's dad again, I know what you mean.
It just some of the posts made him really upset because we really thought we did not take more than we should. But you know things can get pretty hectic sometimes when fish is on the bite especially when it is first or second time in your life.
I love this site - it has a local profile and I bet no real law breaker ever posted anything here and I am surprised that some people don't realize this. Anyway what is done is done. We won't go fishing for next two weeks (Queenstown ski-duty calls), hope it all will quite down by then.
Best Regards
Michael Chelomanov.
Like I said before, chin up mate and keep on learning.

Hey Chelomanov,
You want this to settle down, then dont make me out to be the bad guy. I have been diplomatic about the whole thing but trust me if you want someone to make you out to be the ignorant pair of idiots you are, then I can do that too. I was trying to be objective about your incident; In possesion of Reef fish over the specified bag limit. Stuffed if I know why I even bothered.
James
Dont lose any sleep over some of the comments chemmy, i wouldnt be. We all make mistakes now and again. I'll be one person looking forward to your next report not too count your fish but too enjoy the photos.
Jas
James,
Please forgive me if I have offended you, I did not mean it.
Buy now.

So many f###n saints,I'm sure to miss out on a spot in heaven.Wasn't there a Jew somewhere that said "let he that is without sin cast the first stone"?
Goddam, will everyone let up on him. Sure, he made a mistake. If anything happens thats his business and he will deal with it. Everyone is ripping him over the coals and sure, its the wrong thing. But it is really an honest mistake. It has happened and most likely will happen again. Not from him but someone else. Its not the first time its ever happened and its not like its the last either. Im sure that we all have opinions but to try and say he is an ignorant idiot etc etc is far from the truth. He loves exactly the same thing as we do, to go out and catch a few fish. You cant all say your angels that have never broken the law before.
Im sure that most of you will try and bring this thread up again everytime something happens or diss his comments in other threads. Thats not the right way to go about things.
I dont want to sound like the "cant we all just get along" guy but lay off a little.
And spearing a wobby isnt illegal. The same as taking any mother-in-law fish. You might no think they taste any good but others might like them.
Sorry for sounding like im approving of this. Im not, i think it is wrong but at 15/16 it really doesnt make you feel great about yourself and this topic is losing members from this site.

Got wet,
This is my first post so I understand I don't have much credence on this site but if you read chemmy's first post, you would of read that chemmy clearly stated that he bagged out on pearlies and was sick of throwing them back. This obviously means he counted them and carefully if the bite was so hot. As for your practice of counting fish on the way in and throwing the excess back dead, it is ......... like you who have have caused bag limits to be brought in, in the first place. If chemmy's mistake was an honest one then I suggest he spends his friday's in school brushing up on his grammar and numeracy skills and hopefully it rubs off on some other people on this site.
I dont claim to be a Saint and I was trying to ease things off him until the comments started being fired at me. I wont wear it, got that Banshee. You bought it down to a whole new level.
I know he is just a boy and I tried to help him out.
James
chemmy
good work getting your dad to help you get your post count up look out 2000
I agree that what you did was wrong but I don't thing getting bagged time after time after time will help,I think you have learned your lesson and will be more careful in the future
Daniel
Good form with the f-word Banshee
Lighten up everyone we need some humour.
Chemmy - what do you think your Ausfish penalty should be for doing this ?
Here is mine ; For the next 6 months you will not post your favourite "Got any Pics?" line
Cheers

I've walked away and come back to this thread a few times.
Couldn't see that posting anything was going to make a difference.
Was watching 60 minutes just before. A lot of stuff about kids about chemmy's age frying their brains with pot. Seems pot's not like the stuff we had when we were younger.
Bit like fishing's changed. I wonder how many of the people that are so irate in this thread used to routinely take 100 or more tailor when they were on? Wasn't illegal - Just short sighted. So now we have bag limits (which we should respect).
Did Chemmy and his family do the wrong thing? Yep. They know that.
Did he do it deliberately? Doesn't matter to me. He's the one that's got to live with it if he did.
Is anything that's said or done here going to fix it? Not going to bring the fish back, but I reckon Chemmy's a few ounces wiser today than he was last week.
Chemmy,
Don't lose the enthusiasm for fishing that led you to posting the pics in the first plcae. Just harness it and learn from this.
There are far worse roads in life you could be travelling down.

Owen
